Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of environmentally friendly coated electrodes of the rutile type, with smooth melting, low fume emission and low emission of hexavalent chromium (Cr VI ) and having good operative and coating resistance performances, these being intended in particular for the welding of stainless steel.
  • a stainless steel is defined as an iron alloy whose nominal chromium content is at least 11% by weight. Its use is justified when good oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance are required.
  • stainless steels there are several sub-categories of steel, namely:
  • the high content of the element chromium in stainless steels means that, when they are being welded, the constituent particles of the welding fume contain a high content of compounds containing the element chromium, namely trivalent chromium (Cr III ), namely the least toxic form of the element chromium, and/or hexavalent chromium (Cr VI ), a form known as being highly toxic for humans since it is considered to be a carcinogen.
  • the hexavalent chromium element (Cr VI ), resulting from the welding fume and present in the air breathed, is therefore particularly regulated owing to its potential toxicity.
  • the tolerated average exposure value is 5 mg/m3 of air for "harmless” fume particles and that that of the element Cr VI contained in the fume is equal to 0.05 mg/m3, as reported by P. J. Cunat in "Le chrome dans les fumées de soudage des aciers inoxydables", [Chromium in stainless steel welding fume], Matériaux et Techniques, No. 1-2 2002 , the maximum tolerated concentration of Cr VI , in order for this not to entail the need for reducing the maximum fume content in the air breathed, must be at most 1%, i.e. (0.05/5) ⁇ 100. Below 1%, Cr VI is therefore not a factor limiting the amount of permissible fume in the air breathed.
  • Na or K feldspars such as KAlSi 3 O 8 or NaAlSi 3 O 8
  • Li-based aluminosilicate compounds having very similar properties, such as petalite LiAlSi 4 O 10 , spodumene LiAl(SiO3)2 or eucryptite LiAlSiO 4 , or to replace the standard Na and K silicates with Li silicate.
  • the European patent application No. EP 1 570 944 A1 also discloses formulation means that are based on the conventional solution of eliminating in the formulations all ingredients containing the alkaline metal elements Na and K and in substituting them with "equivalent" ingredients based on lithium (Li).
  • Li-based and K-based compounds normally present are replaced with equivalent or similar Li-based compounds, such as spodumene (LiAl(Si 2 O 6 )), petalite (LiAlSi 4 O 10 ) or eucryptite (LiAlSiO 4 ) for example.
  • Electrodes give excellent performances in low fume and CrVI emissions but, however, still need to be improved since they remain less satisfying, in terms of operating weldability and coating strength, than standard "rutile smooth fusion" electrodes, that is to say electrodes having a single coating which traditionally contain the elements Na or K.
  • Patent application US2011/180523 proposes a stainless steel flux cored wire wherein the Na, K and Li in the flux are controlled to be 0.40% by mass or lower to reduce the leaching of Cr VI .
  • the problem that arises is how to improve coated electrodes intended for welding stainless steels so as to be able to reduce the fume emission content and the Cr VI content in fume in relation to standard conventional stainless steel electrodes, while having obtaining a coating robustness and a level of operating weldability in accordance with the requirements for electrodes of this type, especially as regards their arc, in particular arc initiation and stabilization, bead appearance and slag detachment characteristics.
  • the problem that arises is to provide a range of environmentally friendly coated electrode formulations, with a robust coating, of the smooth-fusion rutile type, intended for welding stainless steels, which result in a deposited metal (after fusion) whose chemical composition is in accordance with the standards relating to the various grades of stainless steel, in particular to the standards EN 1600 and AWS A5.4.
  • the solution of the invention is a coated electrode according to Claim 1.
  • the term "free of" a given compound is understood to mean that the said compound has not been intentionally included in the considered coating and, ideally, that the said coating does not contain any of it at all. However, the possible presence of this compound in trace form as unavoidable impurities is not excluded, although not desirable. Electrodes whose coating therefore contains such compound traces would be considered as being included within the field of protection provided by the present invention.
  • the electrode of the invention may include one or more of the following technical features:
  • the invention further relates to a process for manufacturing an electrode, comprising the following steps :
  • the concentric extrusion of the outer coating is carried out so that said outer coating fully covers the inner coating.
  • the invention relaters to an assembly of an inner coating and an outer coating for covering an electrode, the outer coating covering at least a part of the inner coating, said outer coating containing rutile and at least one lithium-based compound and being free of sodium feldspar and potassium feldspar and said inner coating containing at least one sodium-based compound and/or at least one potassium-based compound.
  • the process and/or the assembly according to the invention may involve an inner coating and/or an outer coating having one or more of the technical features mentioned in the present description.
  • the invention also relates to a stainless steel arc welding process in which an electrode according to the invention is used to produce at least one welded joint on one or more workpieces to be welded, and to the coating of such an electrode.
  • coated-electrode arc welding starts when the operator initiates the welding arc by touching/rubbing the tip of his electrode on the workpiece, the said electrode and the said workpiece forming an integral part of the electrical installation, in the same way as the welding generator, these being connected to one another via the combination of cables of the installation and the earth connection.
  • the intense heat thus produced causes the tip of the electrode and the base metal to melt at the point of impact of the arc. Metal is then transferred through the arc to the workpiece.
  • the metal is thus deposited on the workpiece progressively as the electrode is consumed by being melted.
  • the operator must then ensure that the arc is maintained by keeping the tip of the electrode at a certain height above the workpiece and by moving it at a uniform speed along the workpiece. While the weld is being deposited, a sufficient quantity of heat is maintained in order to melt the tip of the electrode and the zone subjacent to the arc on the workpiece to be welded.
  • a coated electrode for arc welding is an electrically conducting rod, called a core, surrounded by an adherent covering, usually called a coating, from the tip of which the welding arc emanates.
  • the energy of the arc is thus used as a means of heating the workpieces to be joined together.
  • the metal core is generally chosen, as far as possible, in such a way that its chemical composition corresponds to the grade of the base metal to be welded.
  • it may also be made of mild steel, that is to say containing practically no alloying element with the exception of a small amount of manganese, the alloying elements essential for depositing the desired grade then being provided by the coating-this then being called a "synthetic" electrode.
  • the content of alloying elements of the coating is never zero, as this non-zero content makes it possible to improve the mechanical properties of the weld and to compensate for the losses due to volatilization of the metal elements during melting of the electrode when an alloyed core, whose composition is close to that of the metal to be deposited, is used, or to provide the alloying elements necessary for synthesizing the composition of the metal to be deposited when a mild steel core is used.
  • the coating has paramount influence on the welding characteristics and the resulting properties of the deposited metal. Its major roles are not only electrical and mechanical, but also metallurgical.
  • the main functions that the ingredients in the coating composition must provide are numerous. Most of the constituents may have more than one function and the combination of several constituents depending on the precise contents may allow a particular function to be achieved.
  • the various coating constituents may thus be classified in various families, namely the constituents in powder form and the constituents in liquid form.
  • the constituents in powder form are in particular:
  • the constituents in liquid form are especially the binders, which most often are liquid silicates used for agglomerating the dry powders making up the coating before paste that allows extrusion to take place is formed.
  • the blend making up the coating composition for manufacture of a coated electrode is prepared in an operating method comprising the following steps.
  • the ingredients in dry form that have to make up the coating composition are firstly weighed and blended so as to obtain a uniform blend.
  • a binder (or several binders) is (are) then added in order to wet the dry blend within a mixer.
  • the latter is formed and then a concentric extrusion of the coating around the metal cores, precut to the required length, is carried out by means of an electrode press.
  • the tips of the electrodes must then be prepared by brushing the coating.
  • the initiating tip of the electrodes is usually prepared by graphitizing or aluminizing, depending on the nature of the product.
  • the electrodes After the electrodes have been predried in the ambient atmosphere, they are baked in a furnace. This baking operation may be carried out, optionally in steps, up to a temperature of around 350-500° C.
  • the formulation means employed consist in providing a coated electrode having an inner coating and an outer coating, and adopting the solution of eliminating in the formulations of the outer coating all ingredients containing the alkaline metal elements Na and K and in substituting them with "equivalent" ingredients based on lithium (Li).
  • Li-based compounds such as spodumene (LiAl(Si2O 6 )), petalite (LiAlSi 4 O 10 ) or eucryptite (LiAlSiO 4 ) for example.
  • the main function of these compounds used as coating constituents is to control the viscosity of the liquid slag, help to form the slag and therefore to shield the deposited metal, and to help to stabilize the arc during welding.
  • the viscosity of the lithium silicates used within the context of the invention is generally very low, i.e. typically from 15 to 50 centipoise (cp) at room temperature (20°C), and therefore much less than those of the conventional Na and/or K silicates, the viscosity range of which is typically from 150 to 600 cp.
  • the density of the lithium silicate used within the context of the invention is around 1,2.
  • the electrodes thus obtained have coatings that are less strong from the mechanical standpoint (resistance to impact, dropping, rubbing, bending, etc.) while they are being packaged, transported and subsequently used in an industrial environment, than standard rutile smooth-fusion electrodes. These electrodes also exhibit lower operating weldability than smooth-fusion type electrodes.
  • a multi-coated electrode comprising at least one outer coating and one inner coating arranged between the metal core and the outer coating, wherein the outer coating is free of Na and K compounds and the inner coating contains Na and/or K compounds.
  • Na and K compounds even contained in small amounts in the overall coating material of the electrode, that is to say when considering the inner and the outer coatings globally, are still able to provide good welding operative performance and robustness when said compounds are not uniformly dispersed in the overall coating but rather located in major proportion, even exclusively, near the central metal core of the electrode.
  • the Na and K compounds are placed as close as possible to the area of the welding arc and are able to ensure good operative performances.
  • an electrode having, in its overall coating, a spatial distribution of Na and K compounds that is controlled so as to reduce fume and Cr VI emissions with respect to standard rutile smooth fusion electrodes, while having welding and strength performances similar to that obtained with those standard rutile smooth fusion electrodes.
  • Table 1 illustrates, for an electrode of 308L grade with a central core made of stainless steel of the 308L type and having a diameter of 3,2 mm, the formulation basis of an outer coating and an inner coating according to the invention (ranges of % values).
  • the electrode may also have a diameter of 2,5 mm, 3,2 mm, 4,0 mm or 5,0 mm.

  • Table 2 illustrates, for two electrodes (A and B) of the 308L type, with a 3,2 mm diameter central core made of stainless steel of the 308L type, these being formulated on the same formulation basis and from the same lithium silicate introduced in liquid form in a fixed amount for wetting, the influence of the choice of feldspar type on the amount of hexavalent chromium in the welding fume generated by these electrodes.
  • the electrode of Formula A was formulated from a blend of dry powders according to the prior art, whereas the electrode of Formula B consisted of dry powders according to the invention, both formulations being manufactured by means of a lithium silicate according to the invention.
  • Raw materials (powder + binder) of the coating composition (% by weight in the coating
  • Type of aluminosilicate Na and K feldspar 22 %
  • the Li 2 O content of 0,48 % is the Li 2 O which is sourced exclusively by the silicate (dry part), whereas in Table 1, the Li 2 O content of between 1 and 2% represents the total Li 2 O (sourced by the silicate plus the spodumene.
  • Electrode B according to the invention results in fume containing 3 times less Cr VI than with Electrode A.
  • the electrode B according to the invention releases 4 times less Cr VI .
  • the rate of fume emission from Electrode B according to the invention is greatly reduced compared to that from Electrode A.
  • Electrode B has an outer coating formulated from spodumene as substitute for the Na and K feldspars used in Electrode A, while the inner coating is formulated from spodumene and slate powder as a specific silico-aluminate having a low K content.
  • Slate powder also called sericite
  • sericite is a multi-mineral, metamorphic argilaceous rock made of an aggregate of minerals and colloidal substances. Its essentially mineral composition includes quartz, mica, chlorite, sericite & oxides of iron with occasional spots/knots of minerals like garnet, pyrite, andulasite.
  • the use of slate powder as a silico-aluminate material according to the invention has the particular advantage of ensuring simultaneously good extrusion behavior and good weldability, while containing a low K content.
  • these are organic materials which, in combination with the binders and powders used, make it possible to obtain good consistency of the paste and acquisition by the latter of its rheological properties so that it can be extruded around the metal core of the electrode.
  • the extrusion agents have to be chosen judiciously, since drying the electrodes results, within the coating, in them decomposing into ash, the hydroscopic nature of which is deleterious to the electrodes.
  • extrusion agents frequently employed such as Na or K alginates
  • suitable extrusion agents such as carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), hydroxyethylcellulose or any other water-soluble organic substance or resin, calcium alginate, plant-based polymers, such as guar gum, talc (with a typical formula of 3MgO.4SiO 2 .H 2 O) or else clay (with a typical formula of Al 2 O 3 .2SiO 2 .2H 2 O).
  • the inner coating may contain at least one extrusion agent containing Na and/or K, so as to maintain operative welding performance and resistance performance similar to that of smooth-fusion type electrode.
  • the binders are generally aqueous silicates used in liquid form for agglomerating the dry powders making up the coating before the paste used for the extrusion is formed.
  • the amount of silicate used must be such that a thin film is created between the powder particles, the silicate or silicates acting as a bridging agent between the powder particles.
  • Weight loss % 100 x Initial electrode weight ⁇ Final electrode weight / Initial electrode weight .
  • the result expressed for each type of electrodes corresponds to the mean calculated for the ten electrodes of the type in question.

  • Fusion reflects the manner in which the electrode melts during welding. It characterizes the transfer of molten coating and metal droplets that takes place between the electrode, which is consumed, and the weld pool on the workpiece to be welded.
  • the slag line is the line that defines the boundary between the weld pool, that is to say the liquid metal, at the tip of the electrode and the liquid slag floating on the surface.
  • the shape and the stability of the slag line determines the shape and the regularity of the subjacent weld bead and, in particular, the fineness and the regularity of the striations on the surface of the weld bead after solidification.
  • the slag line is generally very close to the tip of the electrode behind the base of the arc.
  • the formulation of a smooth-fusion electrode must therefore be such that the slage line appears calm and stable, as otherwise it may constitute an impediment for the welder and generate surface defects in the bead (relatively pronounced and irregularly spaced striations, etc.) or even inclusions of slag in the deposit.
  • the formulation of a smooth-fusion electrode must allow stable fusion and a stable slag line to be obtained.
  • a smooth-fusion stainless steel electrode is characterized by:
  • surfactant elements such as Sb, Bi, Se, Te and S
  • Sb, Bi, Se, Te and S must be judiciously controlled in the coatings in order to obtain good slag detachment without affecting the operating performance and/or the strength of the product's coating.
  • the weld pool visibility is also used to qualify the operative conditions. Indeed, if the weld pool can be easily seen, this means that it does not interfere with the slag, which makes the electrode easy controllable by the welder.
  • a good bead aspect means a bead that is concave, regular in shape, having fine and regular ripples, and silver-coloured.
  • Good arc striking means that, when the electrode is touched by the workpiece, the arc ignition instantly occurs.
  • Tests of arc re-striking also called cold re-striking
  • the arc is stopped a few seconds, typically between 7 and 10 seconds, so that the electrode becomes colder.
  • the electrode is touched by the workpiece.
  • Good arc re-striking means that the arc ignition occurs instantly, by hitting the the electrode on the workpiece only once, This is an advantageous feature since hitting the electrode on the workpiece several times can destroy locally the coating.
  • the electrodes according to the invention (type B) exhibited a very stable and smooth, spatter-free, arc metal transfer.
